This Wednesday morning at about 5:30am, a violent, out of control security guard at Portrero Safeway (16th Street) KICKED this small (under 20lbs) dog named Rosco, like a Football!
ALERT! The dog is injured and on the loose in the Mission District and may be bleeding. Has SPCA Chip. He weighs about 18lbs, about 18″ long, 7″ tall, 12 years old.
Owner/Witness had Rosco on leash, in hand. Force of kick by bad guard was hard enough to ‘propel’ the tiny dog out of his leash/collar, tumbling over 5 or 6 times in the air until hitting concrete. LAST SEEN NEAR 16TH & MISSION/VALENCIA AREA.
Owner of dog was a regular Safeway customer, filming (as evidence) a teenager (who stole >$5 of candy & chips) being beaten by the Guard — when the guard turned on the witness, grabbed and smashed his cell phone while he was recording the violent guard’s behavior.
Then he KICKED this little dog like a football, causing the dog to tumble over and over five or six times on the concrete and ran away in great fear and trauma.
BE GENTLE if you find Rosco, as he likely has severe internal injuries.
The Security Guard that did this had no reason to take phones away from folks recording his violent, criminal behavior, and destroy them.
